What is Active PFC and why do you want it?

Power Factor Correction (PFC), is a means of correcting the actual input voltage to be closer to the ideal input voltage. This in turn boosts the overall efficiency of the system. Because Active PFC uses a circuit to correct power factor, it is able to generate a theoretical power factor of over 95%. Active Power Factor Correction also markedly diminishes total harmonics, automatically corrects for AC input voltage, and is capable of a full range of input voltage. Since Active PFC is the more complex method of Power Factor Correction, it is more expensive to produce than a Passive PFC power supply.

The specs on this PSU are definitely enough to handle the most power hungry of systems. With 12 SATA power connectors, this PSU can handle all of your storage power requirements as well. Aside from some rack mount storage cases, I don’t know of any that can stock hold up to 12 drives. This PSU also has the ability to power 3 floppy drives at the same time. Is this necessary? Probably not. Most people don’t even use floppy drives any more. I still keep one around for emergency data recovery stuff and if Murphy’s Law comes into effect.
